Re: Raspberry PI 2 Update und andere Probleme

I have found that a stated 16Gb Sony card was being read as a 4Gb for some reason, so I was unable to update the meteohub software as there wasn't enough room on the card :roll: :roll:

After changing passwords I was able to log into using SSH in Terminal and do an "apt-get clean" but because of ...

Re: Raspberry PI 2 Update und andere Probleme

Root cause was a filled up root file system. Cleaning package install cache by
"apt-get clean" gave enough room again.

Hi Admin, could you please tell me how you I should clean the cache? Am good with Mac or PC, but out of my depth trying to navigate from Linux :oops: I have to unplug my RPi 2 ...

Re: RPi Meteohub - Update to v5.0p: RESOLVED

Hi all,
Boris kindly remoted on to my Raspberry Pi.
Apparently the reason for the problem was that the root volume was full so new files could not be created. Cleaning the apt-get cache created more space.

Regards,
Ian.
G'day Ian, I am having the same issue with 5.0f. Your comment about the apt ...

Re: Expanding Image File on a Mac

Apple Pi Baker worked. Ensure you use the SD card reader internally, use the long format with your SD card formatter, and Apple Pi Baker to install the image. It seems to work better too, if you have the *.img file in a simple directory, not buried too deeply. One directory level, not under several ...

Re: Can't set up Raspberry PI

Later, have got a new *.img file downloaded v5.0f and got it working, at least before I went out I did. Trying to get back in to the RPi again now.

Thanks

Re: Can't set up Raspberry PI

I can only repeat, please follow instructions here: http://wiki.meteohub.de/Setup_RPI
There is no fiddling with any files... forget all this, don't think you know better.

#1 fault is to simply copy the meteohub image onto a SD card with your
normal tooling. It needs to be a raw data copy to the ...

Re: Expanding Image File on a Mac

Hello Forum,

I was wondering if anyone had any advice of how I can expand the Image File for a Raspberry Pi on an Apple Mac, the instructions only seem to cover Windows.

Hi Simon,

I have found Apple Pi Baker at http://www.tweaking4all.com/hardware/raspberry-pi/macosx-apple-pi-baker/ to work ...
